HTC followed up the release of its HTC One flagship with a Mini version, the aptly named HTC One mini. It now looks like it do the same with this year’s flagship smartphone. While the HTC M8 has yet to be announced, @evleaks is already suggesting that there will also be a HTC M8 mini.

As we already have seen several times (going as far back as November 2013), the HTC M8 will bear the model number 0P6Bxxxxx. We now know that the HTC M8 mini will carry model number 0P8Bxxxxx.
There is no word yet on when HTC could unveil the HTC M8 mini. The likeliest scenario is that it will follow a few months after the HTC M8 much as the HTC One mini was announced about five months after the HTC One. It also remains to be seen how much the specifications will be downgraded over the HTC M8.
